Teaching the Decoding Triangle will help you understand the intricacies of early reading instruction.
Understand the "Why" and "How" of Reading Instruction
While some students learn to read with ease, many others require skilled instruction to develop their foundational skills. Over the past several years, numerous schools have embraced 'science-of-reading' curricula, acknowledging the significance of decoding skills in early word reading.
However, most teachers were not trained in the complexities of how our brains transform text into natural sounding speech, and what this entails for effective instruction.
Using the phases of reading development as a framework, Teaching the Decoding Triangle explains how children acquire reading skills and the instruction that best promotes its growth. Essential early reading skills such as the concept of word in text, phonemic awareness, alphabet knowledge, letter-sound understanding, the use of text, and achieving reading fluency through word reading automaticity are discussed in detail. Additionally, the book addresses vocabulary, morphology, and reading comprehension, emphasizing the importance of building on existing knowledge to enhance understanding of what students read.
In summary, Teaching the Decoding Triangle will help you grasp the 'why' behind the 'what,' which is crucial for helping all children become proficient readers.
Whether a teacher, reading specialist, special educator, or an administrator, teaching the decoding triangle will help your understanding of reading
